My fiancé leaves bank statements, insurance stuff, the deed to his car, etc with his grandpa. It drives me crazy. It's like he's acting like a baby and can't keep his own stuff with him at our house. He trusts me but doesn't trust my family (neither do I) and that's the excuse that he gives me. My family can't get to it. We've changed the locks. Still, I want his stuff with him!
What do u think?

If your family is untrustworthy, he probably has a good reason for leaving his papers with his grandfather. Your fiance is afraid that one of your family members will break in to his house.

you jnow that with age you get tax breaksand he might be taking avantage of his grandpa's age as long as he is alive and I do not see anything wrong with saving money if one can do that!
if he did like you want then my thinking he would pay two times more then he does now. I think his grandpa pays the bills him self but your hubby pays him at a lower rate.
that is why I think he does that and he might be acting like a baby in a way but it is wise too cause the cost of living is going thought the roof. My brother is 50 years old and he is married and he has nothing in the bank but limited checking and he gave the ded to his house to the bank he is ready to be hung. (sarcastically speaking) but when he lived at home my dad had everything in his name for just that fact of age tax breaks.
other then that I do not know but I wish you both luck together

Get over it hon. Not a big deal, it's not uncommon for younger people to have financial papers with parents etc. You should be glad he's concienttious about money and keeping good care of his records, sounds like he'll be way ahead of the game compared to most 20 year olds. If he's 35 and still does it, then it's weird.

I think the grandpa is the best bet. You cant trust someone like you can trust family. Either that or just get a safety deposit box at the bank.

Well.... With the real valuables it might not hurt getting a SDB at a bank.. IF you and your husband turst this man you both call "grandpa" I see no reason not to leave it with him.
As long as he is honest and doesn't tamper with anything.

that's bizarre!
he's afraid that your folks are going to come over, look through all his bank statements, etc. ? why would they want to do that anyway?
the solution is so simple, a safe with a lock on it, that I'm beginning to suspect something else..something he's hiding from you. does he have a huge loan to pay off or something? is he dealing in drugs or illegal contraband? hmmm.... need to talk this out with him, in an honest way.

He is just probably close with his grandad and trusts his judgement. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Let them have that. You never know how long you've got with somebody.

Until you're married, and even then he can leave it with whoever he wants to.
